Hey everyone, I just got back from a conference in Vegas. It seems like every time I go somewhere, the site gets hacked or taken down :) Lucky for me, a friend was able to investigate and has determined the vulnerability that the hackers used to compromise the site. The offending code was part of the plugin that I use for displaying flash videos. I have acquired and update and will activate it as soon as possible to get the videos back in order.
On a side note… if you’ve been having problems accessing your account, please go here to have your password reset. If you’re still having issues or notice anything out of the ordinary please contact me ASAP.
On yet another side note, I’d like to publicly thank Sidfaiwu for contributing several articles lately. He’s been doing a fantastic job and has given me the time to deal with some personal issues. Thanks Sid!!!

I was just about to ask how you were doing. I was beginning to think Sidfaiwu had locked you up in a basement somewhere and taken over.
Thanks for the PW reset link, Gas.
Glad to hear you are doing well….
password? I use a password??
I thought I only had to fill in Name and Mail…
Hey gas, how you going?
@Brian:
Honestly, I’m not doing too well. It’s something that I don’t feel comfortable sharing with everyone at this point. I have reached a point in my life where I am forced to deal with issues that I have kept locked up for my entire life. I know I’m being vague, but that is all I have to offer at this time. But I will say this much… having to take an honest look at yourself and truly understand who you are is a very difficult thing to do. Basically I have gone through life not knowing what I truly want out of it and not fully understanding myself as a man, a husband, and a father.
More to come as I feel comfortable sharing it. To those that I have conversed with in private I thank you :)

Hey Gas, I won’t presume to know what you’re talking about but I think I can empathise.
I was raised in a pretty crappy family environment. Father got sick when I was young. He coped by getting all abusive and pitting one kid against another and ripping into each us (I’m one of 10 kids, good catholics!) to find any weak spot in our psyche and target that. Mum let it happen, so pretty much had to survive on my own because trusting someone backfired.
Anyway, he passed on a decade ago and since then I’ve travelled the world a bit, that helped, still didn’t make me feel great when things went bad. Still felt like a looser who deserved to be alone. In the end I had a bit of crisis, hated where I was going in life and ended up seeing this great shrink for a year and a half and haven’t looked back. Helped me see that I was just a valuable a person as anybody else on the planet and had as much right as the next person to live my life as I wanted (without treating others as crap, of course).
Don’t know if that offers any help, but that’s what I’d do if I were to have another period of depression/crisis.
If you want to converse in private you can get me at bae72@hotmail.com.
Now I’ll have all the religious types analysing my story and saying that is why I “hate” god or some such nonsense. Take care.
If there’s one thing that seems constant to me the more people I meet in life, it’s that we all have those bad things that we push back most of the time. It always hurts to bring them back out, but we won’t be what we really want to be unless we do. It may not be much solace to you, but it’s true when I say we’ve all had such times. I’ve had them before, and what the full consequences will be I cannot say, as I am still young enough to be ruined yet :) But whatever happens, there are those who think of you, and that’s something that should never be forgotten. We’re here for you, gas, and if there’s every anything you feel the need to talk about, I’m more than willing to listen, outside of a forum if necessary :)
sounds like your having progress gasmonso, good for you. and sid, your doing a great job as a substitute, just hope you dont go off and start your own website!
Oh no, HACKERS!!! Damn hackers, working their way into your site with every intention to convert it into something less than. Like a virus, I tell ya, like a virus…or a meme? Hmmm… lol
Hey Gas, hope you come to terms with whatever it is. Uh, you aren’t finding god are you?!? In any case, I hope everything works out for you soon. I am sure you have plenty of people to talk to but if you want another, you have my e-mail address (even though you don’t know me, hah). Feel better soon, thats an order! :)
I feel quite uncomfortable talking about Gasmondo, who is clearly having the very same bother that the rest of us do. However, my man, you have opened up a website / forum where all sorts of disparate folk can come and have a natter and a moan about religion. For that, much thanks. And for that, believe in yourself. I’m not being presumptious, but I think that the rest of us believe in you. God Bless (In an Atheist sense..!)
I know this is a long way in and that I’m a newcomer here, but I’ve been reading long before I’ve been posting. I get the vibe that most people here would like to know what’s going on with Gasmondo. We’re not nosy but concerned. Funny, isn’t it, how someone on the other side of the world from me can cause concern? I just feel rather priveliged to be on this site and the guy who made it possible has gone off…. Come back, mate!
You made a few fine points there. I did a search on the issue and found the majority of people will agree with your blog.
Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important and all. Nevertheless imagine if you added some great graphics or videos to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with pics and clips, this site could definitely be one of the very best in its niche. Fantastic blog!
Hi there, I discovered your blog by way of Google at the same time as searching for a comparable matter, your site came up, it appears good. I have bookmarked it in my google bookmarks.
